Standard SIM cards in sat phones?

Telstra list a 24 mnth post paid plan at $15/mnth - half what you are paying now. If you make voice calls, from my experience, you get slugged about $6.50/min, but in an emergency that's irrelevant. Might be worth a call. You should be able to make international calls/global roaming without issue - again need to check that.

Thanks mate but what really pisses me off is I've rung three times. All said pre paid was fine and the other 2 calls were nope that's the best plan.

They just simply have no idea and are just puppet muppets!

Hey mate, finally finding time to get back to this.

So what is a post paid plan?

I don't care about call charges of course, but would be happy to pay 50 cents or $1 for sms to stay in touch on the trips of course.

I'm assuming its a plan?

Being lazy, never heard of this Google thing people talk about

Post paid is a contracted plan, such as you pay $15/month and get $15 calls, unlimited texts etc etc. Its a standard plan as opposed to the pre-paid which is cash up front, call charges generally higher/second and more restrictions. What you simply need to know or have guaranteed is the plan allows for international roaming on the Telstra network - I know the next g plan I have works simply with international roaming turned on.
